Abstract

The research paper explores the potential benefits of integrating electric Vertical TakeOff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft into emergency medical services (EMS) in the ASEAN-5 countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Singapore). The study addresses significant urban traffic congestion, which hinders efficient emergency response, and evaluates how eVTOL EMS can mitigate these issues. The methodology employs a mixed-method approach over six months, combining qualitative case studies and quantitative surveys to assess public perception, operational challenges, and the effectiveness of eVTOL EMS. Key findings indicate high public support for eVTOL EMS, primarily due to anticipated faster response times and reduced traffic delays. However, challenges such as regulatory differences, infrastructure limitations, and workforce constraints must be addressed to implement eVTOL EMS successfully. The paper concludes that while eVTOL EMS shows promise, further research and strategic planning are essential to optimize its integration into the ASEAN region's urban emergency services and a proposed structure for future ICAO annexes.
